    I know I'm a bit behind, but I will join in. This is will be great for me since I am working at a camp this summer and I am surrounded by processed foods and sweets like you would not believe!

    Welcome! I LOVE your picture! How long have you played bassoon?

    Good morning and happy Friday! This has been one heck of a week and I can't wait for it to end and the weekend to begin. I really hope I can return to my normal vibrant self soon. Once again I awoke w/no desire to get up and workout but I made myself. However, I wasn't able to complete the P90X Leg and Back routine b/c I had wasted too much time, so, I opted for a shorter (still a decent intensity) workout. I completed 36 minutes of the Cardio Mix and Melt dvd from the Melt It Off series.

    Ultimate Goal: ♥ 140 ♥


    I'm not going to be discouraged about my weigh-in today... It's that time of the month and I was a bridesmaid in a wedding last weekend where it was a 3 day event! I will continue to workout and log my food and see what happens next week :) Happy weigh-ins to everyone!!!

    Great job ladies despite the fact that the scale may have shown a slight increase. Don't let the scale get you down. Stay focused and you'll be at your goal weight before you realize it.

    Good afternoon all! I decided to listen to my body today and not complete an intense workout. I had been dragging all week and my mood was not the best. Instead of completing the Kenpo X workout I decided to do the Leslie Sansone WATP dvd. I'm about to head out and complete some errands.

    Good afternoon everyone! I have been logging in and completing my workouts late this weekend in a real attempt to catch up on my rest and relaxation. While I still feel a little drained I can tell the rest has helped especially as it relates to my mood. It's been a low key weekend and it will be short work week for me as my trip to LA is finally arriving this Thursday. I'm extremely excited although disappointed that the weather in LA will be 10-15 degrees cooler than GA weather. Nonetheless, I plan to enjoy myself to the fullest.

    Since today is technically my rest day I decided to take it light. I headed to the park in an attempt to jog another 2+ miles but because I waited so long to get out there the temperature was too brutal for my liking (80 degrees w/humidity) so I ran a mile and walked a mile. If I continue to try to run outside I will have to do it a lot earlier b/c I didn't like how I felt one bit.

    Now I'm off to fold and iron clothes and then chill for the rest of the day.

    Next week's weigh in should be very interesting b/c I leave for a girls weekend to LA on Thursday and I plan to enjoy myself which will include alcoholic beverages and trying out restaurants that are CA specific. While I do plan to workout while there I just hope I don't over-indulge.

    Good morning and happy Monday all! Today is week 6 day 1 of the P90X program which means it's Chest, Shoulders and Triceps day. Last week was my first time completing this routine and I received my first injury (rug burn). I was better prepared this morning, I strapped on the knee pads and I used a yoga mat to ensure no rug burns this week. Looking like I was prepared for battle I pressed play and got busy. I still think having to complete all these push ups (slow motion 3 in 1, plange, floor fly, 2 twitch speed, side to side, 1 arm, clap/plyo and 1 arm balance push ups) in one day should be illegal but I didn't complain nearly as much as last week. I'm hopeful that my level of complaining will continue to decrease as my upper body strength increases :bigsmile: :bigsmile:

    I am STILL struggling to get in my 6 workouts! It seems something always comes up. So, once again my goal this week is to get in workouts at least 6 days this week. I am also aiming to be down to 208 lbs. Good luck all!

    Hello Peps!
    So I went up one lbs this week. But its okay. I do notice that I'm getting a lot more definition with my workout, so I'm hoping/thinking that its the whole muscle weights more than fat :)
    Either way, I'm feeling great, losing inches. A lot of people have noticed my "boom boom" getting lifted and tighter! I will be starting week three of the BBL program.
    Hope you all have a great week.

    Sorry I missed last week's posting. I went back to my body's fav # - UGH. Still pushing through it. It's been a stressful 2 weeks, so I know that plays a part. But, I'm tired of making excuses. Ready to watch my food even more closely this week and challenge myself more in my workouts. I need to get more sleep too. I guess I just found a reason I am not progressing as quickly as I would like - focusing on too many "shoulds" at once. This week, I will get back to basics and up my water intake. :drinker: That is very easy for me to focus on even when my job is busy and stressful. Hang in there everyone. You are doing great!

    I'm up a lb this week, I'm not too worried though. I started the C25K so I'm hoping thats where the extra lb came from. This week I am adding strength training. I don't know if I am going to meet my mini goal for the end on may but I'm going to try.

    Up and down on both calorie goals and exercise goals. Started strong, but as the week went along and I got more tired toward the weekend, the harder it got to eat the right foods and find the energy to exercise. Anyone else struggle with work and the rest of your life taking too much out of you to take care of yourself the way you need to?

    My challenge for last week was to exercise every day. I didn't get there, so that's my challenge again this week. Exercise every day.

    This week I need to figure out my own structured exercise schedule. My water aerobics class is done for the summer, so there goes 2 days of my exercise plan! I start Zumba class on Wednesday, so I guess I just need to plan to go to Curves at least 5 days this week! Its hot & humid here in Illinois! My pool should be open tomorrow so I can do some of my water aerobics on my own! Yay for summer! :happy:
